Frequently Asked Questions
- How is the FUTA Public Health cut-off mark determined?
The cut-off mark is set by the university in consultation with JAMB, based on factors such as the number of applicants, available slots, and the previous year’s performance. It is not fixed and may vary each year. - Where can I check the official current-year cut-off mark for Public Health at FUTA?
The official cut-off mark is published on the JAMB portal (jamb.gov.ng) and on the FUTA admissions website (futa.edu.ng). You can also check the JAMB CAPS platform after results are released. - What happens if a candidate scores below the FUTA Public Health cut-off mark?
Candidates who score below the cut-off mark are not eligible for admission into that programme at FUTA. They may consider other universities with lower cut-off marks or apply for a change of course within FUTA if their score meets the threshold for a different programme.
Always verify the exact current-year cut-off mark for Public Health from the official JAMB and FUTA portals, as figures can change annually. Meeting or exceeding the cut-off is just one step — you must also satisfy the O’level requirements and participate in the post-UTME screening.
